WHY
NEGOTIATIONS CAN STILL BE A BETTER OPTION:
- By Syed Roman Ahsan
Pakistan
is facing terrorism since 2004. People have become used to it but it does not
mean they are not concerned. Nobody in Pakistan is happy in these times. It's
only the elite class in Pakistan which is self-indulgent but there too many
conscientious people are present. Mere emotions are not a solution for the
country. Please read this post why negotiations with the terrorists can help
weaken their power. This is important to understand but we are not bothered to
use our mind here. According to Andleeb Abbas, senior leader PTI, (discussing
without any political affiliation) whenever Army has done military operations
against TTP, their attacks all over the country have increased.
WHY NEGOTIATIONS CAN STILL BE A BETTER OPTION:
Imran Khan has been one of the major supporters of
negotiations with the terrorist groups in North. There are many groups in the
North of Pakistan who are responsible for terrorism. The major strategy in
negotiations is to break the force of the terrorists and isolate those tribal
groups (who have been misled by fake Mullahs) to bring them on our side. The
government does not need to fight all of them, which will make their strength
multiply since many tribal people will also join them having sympathy for them.
And we can't afford "increasing" bomb attacks and suicide attacks on
civilian population all over Pakistan, which they might do God forbid to take
their revenge against the state of Pakistan. At present seven terrorist groups are
willing to negotiate and form peace deal with the government of Pakistan.
Imran Khan makes sense and he knows the tribal people more than us. They are warriors from generations and a tough breed. We don't want this turning into an endless war. CIA, Blackwater and Mossad (or other external agencies) are also very actively supporting many of those groups and negotiations cannot work with them. Government should negotiate with those groups only who condemn bomb blasts in mosques, hospitals, public places etc. and who only consider the US forces as their enemy. The tribal groups who follow Islam and Shariah should be ware of the conspiracies of Blackwater and the fake Mullahs created by them. And USA should stop interfering in the affairs of Pakistan including drone attacks.
Let's not forget also that it was Musharraff's fault as president to send the Pak Army to North in 2003 under US pressure. At that time, there were no terrorist groups in North and there was "no justification" for killing fellow Muslims by the Pak Army also. TTP (Tehrik-e-Taliban) was formed much later on, in 2007 perhaps, with external support and agenda to destabilize our country. Many tribal people have also been joining TTP because they think state of Pakistan is KAAFIR and an ally of USA. Also, survivors of drone attacks or the relatives of victims killed in drone attacks have also been joining TTP. So whom should we blame initially? It was our rulers fault for starting war on terror in Pakistan at the behest of America in the first place.

The
above does not mean that we should go against Pak Army. It is our own
institution which only functions on the orders of the government and hence it
is the government’s fault. However, it is important to understand the
background.
